Zum Gedachtnis des 100. Todestages P.I. Cajkovskijs fand in Tubingen Ende Oktober 1993 ein Internationales Tschaikowsky-Fest mit Ausstellungen, Konzerten und einem musikwissenschaftlichen Symposium statt, dessen Referate in diesem Band publiziert werden. Beim Tubinger Tschaikowsky-Fest wurde auch die Idee geboren, den neuen Ansatzen der Cajkovskij-Forschung und insbesondere der Cajkovskij-Philologie ein zentrales und internationales Publikationsforum zu schaffen: die Cajkovskij-Studien. In der neuen Reihe, die sich zugleich an Liebhaber wie an Fachleute wendet, werden Arbeiten zu den verschiedenen Aspekten des Lebens und Werks Cajkovskijs vorgelegt, Originalbeitrage und Ubersetzungen aus dem Russischen, gerade auch solche Arbeiten, die im Zusammenhang mit der Vorbereitung der Neuen Cajkovskij-Gesamtausgabe entstehen.

James Haynor has arranged three short liturgical works by Thomas Tallis for Trombone Quartet. Tallis was the first English composer to set English words to music for the Church.
1. If you love me
2. Verily, verily I say unto you
3. Gloria Patri
Number 1. is his most famous anthem, written in English as decreed by King Henry VI.
Number 2, also an anthem, but to be used during the Anglican communion service.
Number 3, Gloria Patri is a Doxology or short hymn of praise to God used by Catholics and high Anglicans.
These three short works total about 3 1/2 minutes in length.
The music is appropriate for moderately advanced performers, the first player should have a good high C (the first part is in tenor clef).

The Christmas oratorio Die Geburt Christi op. 90 was first performed in 1894 in the St. Thomas Church in Strassburg and today it has been rediscovered. It is the first of a trio of so-called church oratorios by Brahms's friend, Heinrich von Herzogenberg. It was followed by Die Passion op. 93 and Erntefeier op. 104, all of which have been published by Carus in reprints of earlier editions. With these works which are partly neo-baroque, partly late romantic choral works, Herzogenberg commits himself to a new form of the Protestant worship service characterized by a high artistic level, but still near to the congregation. Allowing the choir to be accompanied by instruments outside the closed liturgical form of the service goes back to a concept of the theologian from Strasbourg, Friedrich Spitta. Since Christmas was a good occasion for the choir to perform independently, Spitta decided to put together the text for a Christmas oratorio and to commission Herzogenberg to realize it musically.
